Cheese Snackles

Cheese Snackles

Cheese Snackles - My brother-in-law Russell came last week and brought us a bag of these fabulous cheese crackers. They were so good, I asked him to get the recipe from his friend, Rose-Marie, who is constantly asked to bring them to social gatherings. She got the recipe from her friend Ann who died at age 50 in 1989, so she is glad to have her friend remembered. Thank you Rose-Marie!

Baked French Fries

Who doesn't love French Fries? I found a French fry cutter tool in my mother-in-law's cupboard. She claims she had never seen it before. It screamed MAKE FRENCH FRIES NOW to me! Of course, I did just that. You can add endless kinds of salts, seasonings, Parmesan cheese to this recipe.

I would suggest making these Gin Flambéed Olives outside! These are very good, if you like olives, though I would urge you to invite a firefighter to your party!

Parmesan & Gruyère Roasted Cauliflower

This Parmesan & Gruyère Roasted Cauliflower recipe is a great snack or side dish. Cauliflower is low in fat, low in carbohydrates but high in dietary fiber, folate, water, and vitamin C, possessing a high nutritional density. A high intake of cauliflower has been associated with reduced risk of aggressive prostate cancer.

Crispy Oven Zucchini Fries

These Crispy Oven Zucchini Fries are a healthier version of zucchini fries. I have included a recipe for Apricot Dipping Sauce, which is a nod to the beloved Hamburger Hamlet restaurant chain in Los Angeles. They were famous for their Zucchini Zircles. You can also cut them into discs. I really hate deep-frying, so these are done in the oven, which is so much easier and less messy.
